Imapsync is easier. Made migration from dovecot to Office 365, then back to dovecot painless and easy, and can be done while both systems are live.
Re: Migrate Dovecot email archive
Yes, infact it's working: after thecopy I've switched mx record and server address on the email client so, the oldmailbox is not used. Mailstorage format was the same on both servers (mbox). I'vepreferred this approach than the use of Dsync or Imapsync tools.

Re: Fedora + Dovecot - only one client can connect per user?

Howdy -
Hi Thomas,
I am running dovecot-2.2.24-1.fc23.x86_64 on Fedora 23. It's up to date
as of last night.
When I log in from a desktop using Thunderbird on Linux, my Android
phone (Nexus 6P) stops receiving mail. It happens if I'm on my laptop or
my desktop.
My wife has the same problem using Thunderbird on Windows. If she leaves
the house and forgets to shut down her MUA, her phone can't retrieve
messages.
Is this expected behavior? Can I change it? I feel like it's pretty
common for folks to have multiple devices which access the same mail
account. Between phones, tablets, PCs, etc., this seems like a pretty
common scenario.
no, that's not to be expected and should work pretty well.
It's a pretty vanilla setup:
[root@wintermute ~]# dovecot -n
# 2.2.24 (a82c823): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 4.4.4-301.fc23.x86_64 x86_64 Fedora release 23 (Twenty Three)
mbox_write_locks = fcntl
namespace inbox {
inbox = yes
location =
mailbox Drafts {
special_use = \Drafts
}
mailbox Junk {
special_use = \Junk
}
mailbox Sent {
special_use = \Sent
}
mailbox "Sent Messages" {
special_use = \Sent
}
mailbox Trash {
special_use = \Trash
}
prefix =
}
passdb {
driver = pam
}

ssl_cert =
# 2.2.24 (a82c823): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 4.5.5-300.fc24.x86_64 x86_64 Fedora release 24 (Twenty Four)
Used an F24 test VM which came up with the same Fedora default dovecot
configuration. I am a bit surprised that your's provides access to mail
though it has no configuration where the mailbox is located on the
drive: "mail_location" is empty as well "location" in the inbox namespace.
What is being logged in /var/log/maillog when the access fails? My test
system did log
Jun 20 20:37:36 fedora24 dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=,
method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, mpid=13441, secured,
session=<6G6V/7k1FNV/AAAB>
Jun 20 20:37:36 fedora24 dovecot: imap(dalloz): Error: User
initialization failed: Namespace '': Mail storage autodetection failed
with home=/home/dalloz
Jun 20 20:37:36 fedora24 dovecot: imap: Error: Invalid user settings.
Refer to server log for more information.
Made it working by adding
mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
to /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf.
2 parallel IMAP logins then were no problem at all. The default limit on
your Fedora is
# doveconf | grep mail_max_userip_connections
Thanks!

Disabling passdb pam in local.conf
Greetings,
I'm trying to create a configuration that leaves every config file deployed by
an install process or paket management software untouched. The goal is to put
every configuration required into /etc/dovecot/local.conf.
I've come quite far, but I fail to disable pam as passdb service in
local.conf. What I get if I run doveconf -n is this section:
passdb {
driver = pam
}
It is in there, because 10-auth.conf includes it:
!include auth-system.conf.ext
These actions are not an option at the moment:
- modify /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf and comment/remove the
!include-statement
- create an /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf which would contain all options required
and would not include any other *.conf files
Reading http://wiki2.dovecot.org/ConfigFile I see ways to include external
files, but nothing to exclude a file in local.conf.
Knowing Timo I would expect there is a way to acchieve what I want. I just
don't seem to find it.
What am I missing?
Regards,
p@rick

Is your goal to have "1" config file?
If so get your system working how you want it then:
doveconf -n > /etc/dovecot/config.test
Start dovecot with this file.
